Total defense not included. ISWYDT.

But still, this is VERY nice looking for rebuilding year.

Fun fact, if we get about 80 or more yards rushing this game, we will have matched our season total for rushing yards for all of last year

Wow, good job both to Kage for 2013 and nino for 2012. What a contrast.

To be fair, it was the best part of our team last year

But yeah, it looks like Boulaware was slacking too.

Not going to argue with this

Wasn't that he was slacking as much as being ST Coordinator isn't too hard to not frick up. Especially with Auburn's insistence on getting "experience" through special teams for young 4/5* athletes.

Doesn't hurt when you have All American P/K on the roster who are not coached by ST Coordinator yet he gets credit for their accomplishments

ESPN has been pumping up Logan Thomas for two straight years and he has been nothing but garbage.

Their offense is terrible and despite Jesse Palmer calling their defense potentially the best in the country, the only BCS offense they faced that comes in ahead of #50 GT in points scored is Alabama who dropped 35 on them

I like what I'm seeing.

Eff every coach we had in 2012! That pic of Chiz and Troop made me cringe a little.

The defensive improvement stats stick out, because that's really the biggest question everyone had about the team this year, but these two just show how much better our OL is playing. There wasn't much question as to whether the offense would improve or not, but the OL was still a bit of a question mark, especially with a relatively young line. They certainly have done a very good job so far, and really could have been better than they have been, which is really promising for their future.


Rushing offense - 7th 78th

Sacks allowed - 5th 109th

That may be true but you have to consider the poison that was running through the veins of the Auburn football program last year. It effected and dragged everything down into an abyss never seen at Auburn before.

I feel like Coaches Chizik, Taylor, Luper, Roof, Van Gorder, Loeffler et al, should have enough taken out of their "Severance" to re-pay all season ticket holders. Maybe from now on we could write into each contract a section entitled "Repayment for incompetancy" so that if we are shown to improve this signifigantly in one season after their removal, with at least 2/3 of the same roster, then they pony up!! You want the big $$$, earn it bitches!!

And if AU meant as much as the almighty $$ to those previous a$$hats they should have said something!! Ignorance is no excuse when you are making 6-7 figures. If you can't stand up for yourself and the game/school itself then go back to HS ball, or a off-field position. But don't piss on my head and tell me it's raining and not expect me to be pi$$ed when I find out!!
